# NAME
|
|
|
|
git-annex fromkey - adds a file using a specific key
|
|
|
|
# SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
git annex fromkey `[key file ...]`
|
|
|
|
# DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
This plumbing-level command can be used to manually set up a file
|
|
in the git repository to link to a specified key.
|
|
|
|
Multiple pairs of file and key can be given in a single command line.
|
|
|
|
If no key and file pair are specified on the command line, they are
|
|
instead read from stdin. Any number of lines can be provided in this
|
|
mode, each containing a key and filename, separated by a single space.
|
|
|
|
Normally the key is a git-annex formatted key. However, to make it easier
|
|
to use this to add urls, if the key cannot be parsed as a key, and is a
|
|
valid url, an URL key is constructed from the url. Note that this does not
|
|
register the url as a location of the key; use [[git-annex-registerurl]](1)
|
|
to do that.
|
|
|
|
# OPTIONS
|
|
|
|
* `--force`
|
|
|
|
Allow making a file link to a key whose content is not in the local
|
|
repository. The key may not be known to git-annex at all.
